GIVAUDAN-KARRER LECTURES – 2013

Professor Scott Denmark 2013

University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, Illinois, USA

Research in the Denmark Group
involves the interplay of structure, reactivity and mechanism in service of the
development and application of new synthetic reactions. Stereochemistry and
catalysis form the pillars upon which many research programs rest, such as in
enantioselective Lewis base catalysis, phase transfer catalysis and transition
metal catalysis.
